review 1: Violet In Bloom in my opinion would be a good book for fifth graders. The book is written about a group of ffith graders and focuses on the drama and hardships that people go through at that age. Therefore, I believe fifth grade readers would be able to relate to it and bettering there chances of sticking with it. While I enjoyed the reading and found it entertaining, I also found it somewhat predictable. The whole book led up to this huge catastrophy at the end. The plot was good and the storyline was good I however, had a hard time finishing it though because I could already assume the ending. I thought this book would be good to have within a classroom because of the way it represents friendship. Fifth grade children often find themselves fighting with their friends a g... morereat deal. This book shows how that can happen but how to resolve it and focus on what really matters. The book also addresses issues such as a child living in a homosexual household as well as a child that has different religious views comparred to her friends. This would be good to have within a classroom because it allows children to see that it doesn't matter where you come from or what you believe in, everyone is the same and should be treated equally.
review 2: Katie-Rose, Violet, Milla, and Yasaman are back for another round of blogging, videos, chats and text messages. This time they face the problems jealousy, a mentally ill parent, crushes, hamster death and a fight for healthier food. All while trying to stay friends.Myracle once again proves she has an ear for the voices of the tween set. She also knows how to integrate new technology into her writing without it being a gimmick. These two facts make up for the fact that the story takes a bit to get going and some parts are a little implausible.Good stuff. less
